With a capacity of 62,062, the new stadium becomes the biggest club stadium in London and, by incorporating a fully retractable pitch, the first in the world to be custom-built to stage football and NFL games. The stadium has been designed to generate one of the best match day atmospheres in the world, with uninterrupted sightlines and spectators closer to the pitch than at any comparable ground in the UK. The stands are angled at 35 degrees ? the steepest angle that UK guidelines recommend ? to create a tighter, atmospheric stadium bowl which focusses towards the southern ?home end?, where 17,500 spectators will come together to generate a ?wall of sound? in the largest single-tier stand in the UK.
